Hey, my girls! How goes it? Good week? Ready for the weekend? Oh yeah, I TOTALLY am. And I'm totally sleeping in tomorrow. I hope my kids realize that... Three different kids woke me up early this morning to tell me that SOMEONE (read: Jake) ate all the ice cream last night. I forgot to lock the fridge/freezer. A mistake that I won't be making today.

I was SO tired when I got up. I got Jim all ready for Sports Camp, and Amanda came and picked him up and dropped him off at 8:45am ish. And then Captain America was on Skype, and I chatted with him until around 10:30am. It was very nice to talk with him 2 days in a row! Oh yeah! Miss you, hon :(

Jake was still asleep, so the rest of the kids and I got on our swim clothes, and headed up to pick up the little boys. Amanda had the bug guy coming to spray, so she had to be home until he got there. I picked up Austin and Jim, and they were having a closing pizza party! And they had extra, so Tom and Joe and Eme got to eat too. Sweet! No need to drive to free lunch, right? hehe.

The kids ate, and we loaded up, and headed to the pool. It was not full yet! Sweet :) I showed my ID card to get in, and they wanted Tom's too. Whaaat? Sigh. Apparently it was a new rule that came down for the CG... I guess I'll need to find them and put them in my wallet, right?

The pool filled up SUPER fast today. I don't like it when it gets THIS full. Amanda and Kari and I swam during the 15 minutes of grown up swim, and got out when they blew the whistle. Too many kids are scary. LOL!

We were at the pool from 11:30ish to 3:00 ish. And I think I got a little burned. Not too bad. I put on sunblock, but because I have a new suit, there's some previously unexposed skin that got a little pink. Not too bad, as of yet. hehe.

We headed home, and Jake was awake and sitting with Boxer. He decided against the youth center, and honestly, I was happy. I didn't wanna drive out there. The kids watched some TV/computers, and Jim and I laid down for a nap. Oh yeah, it felt SO good.

I woke up at 6:30pm, and had a crock pot of chicken and potatoes for the kids to eat. And I started cleaning. And didn't stop until around 9:30pm. I mopped the kitchen floor and cleaned a little in there, then moved all the furniture in the living room, and mopped it real good. And rearranged the furniture so that there's no longer easy access from the kitchen to the living room. Too much food being snuck in, and too much RUNNING around from the dining room to the living room in circles. That drives me nuts. hehe.

I washed the floorboards, and a little bit of the walls. I need to go buy about 20 Magic Erasers for that job, though... Check out my clean room!

Too bad this room didn't clean itself. Maybe I'll work on that one tomorrow morning...It's now 10:15pm, and the little kids are in their room quietly watching a movie. Jake and Tom and Eme are on the laptops and watching something on Netflix. And I'm re-watching an episode of 24 (for the 3rd time) and blogging and designing.

We have pool time planned for tomorrow, and a trip to the library. Fun times!

About Me

Hi all. My name is Bethany, and I'm a 35 yr old, happily married, stay-at-home mom, with 5 kids. Yes, they're all mine. And they have the same Dad. And we had them AFTER we got married.
We are an army family and ate currenly stationed at Ft Bliss Tx. And I absolutely love it here!!! El Paso is awesome!
I enjoy WordArt designing, my family, church (we're LDS), watching movies and TV (and proud of it!), and walking/exercising (most of the time).

Why WordArt?

So, why WordArt you ask? Well, I don't know how to do anything else :) I just started Digiscrapping in February of 2008, and my skills with Photoshop are very limited. But, WordArt I get. I can see how the words should go together. It comes very easy. One of these days, I'll learn the "hard" stuff!
